The mRNA/+RNA description: 
In vitro T7 run-off transcript produced from bicistronic plasmid pDC-EMCV which encodes neomycin
phosphotransferase and truncated version of the beta-galactosidase (linearized at the Ssp1 site at position
3744 within pDC-EMCV; see 1384.gb below) as the first and the second cistron respectively and the EMCV-R IRES
(nt from -575 to nt -9 of the original sequence) inserted between reporters.
